We have about a month to go... the countdown is on.
With that said, I'm going to make an effort to list out the things that we will miss and not miss about the UK - I'm sure the miss list will be much longer!
To cap our 2 years here, we're going to South Africa in April. Beth and I went to our local NHS GP this morning to get all of the shots we'll need. Amazing... We got vaccinated for a host of things and did not pay one pound. I know feelings about free healthcare are controversial in the States... but it's quite nice to walk it, receive treatment, and leave without paying for anything.

HI THERE.
I AM A SOUTH AFRICAN WHO STUMBLED UPON YOUR BLOG BECAUSE WE ARE LOOKING TO MOVE TO ENGLAND AND I NEED SOME FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE ON ENGLAND AND WHAT IS'T LIKE TO LIVE THERE. (YOUR INFO WAS VERY INTERRESTING AND INFORMATIVE AS TO THE FEEL THAT YOU GET OF ENGLAND)
HOWEVER, SPEAKING AS A SOUTH AFRICAN, WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU WANT TO COME HERE??
THIS PLACE IS CRIME RIDDEN, WE HAVE CONTINUOUS POWER OUTAGES (BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT FORGOT TO BUILD POWER STATIONS)NO PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM (PLEASE DONT USE THE TAXIS HERE)! ETC, ETC....
BASICALLY, THE ONLY GOOD THINGS ABOUT SA, IS THE WEATHER AND THE SCENERY.
NO OFFENCE, BUT SA WILL BE A BIG BURST IN YOUR BUBBLE!!
